Accidents at work, in warehouses and logistics centres continue to be one of the main causes of serious injury in the industrial sector. Logistics security is one of the major challenges facing this sector.
According to the 2023 Annual Report on Accidents at Work in Spain, 16.5% of accidents at work are linked to collisions or crashes with moving objects, highlighting the urgent need for more effective measures to protect employees and minimise risks, like Crash Stopper.
Logistics security: a primary objective of Carttec Group
Safety is not only about avoiding physical injury. The costs of accidents can be very high, both financially and for a company’s reputation.
Direct costs include:
- Loss of working hours for the employees involved and their colleagues.
- Time spent on inspection visits and expertise.
- Payment of severance pay and sick leave.
Indirect costs, such as damage to corporate image and overall productivity, are equally damaging. Prevention has become an essential investment.
The ultimate technological solution
As a result, the Carttec Group has developed a state-of-the-art solution that is making a difference in industrial safety: Crash Stopper, an anti-collision warning system specifically designed to prevent accidents between vehicles and operators in busy logistics environments.
- This system integrates high-precision sensors that continuously detect the vehicle’s surroundings, warning of impending danger and braking automatically if necessary.
- Apart from its technological effectiveness, Crash Stopper is characterised by its easy integration into any type of fleet or industrial equipment, making it an adaptable and accessible option for all types of operations.
- Its intuitive and flexible design means it can be quickly implemented into various logistical configurations, without affecting the workflow.
Technology aside, this solution from Carttec Group focuses on something fundamental: ensuring a safe and secure environment for employees while safeguarding corporate reputation. The cost of an accident at work can far exceed the costs of implementing preventive measures such as Crash Stopper, both in terms of human resources and reputation.
